Question for Superphil and other Footballshirtophiles

[house your seagull]

i bought this beauty on french ebay and it's arrived - only 13 euros too!

anyway, i bought it because i didn't recognise it, i've seen the white and red versions, even a flashy sky blue version, but never a royal blue version on the classic template.

no trace on the main shirt websites.

does anybody remeber this shirt? when did england wear it?

lastly, where's the best place to sell it?

i'm intrigued!

According to England National Team 1872-1939 - Historical Football Kits, never. But the colour was worn in the 30's and 50's
I don't remember it.

Where's the best place to sell it? Apparantly, French ebay.

Looks fake to me, the badges are too small

Looks like something from a dodgy foreign market

Its definately an Umbro template. Generally the labels in the collars of Umbro replicas of that time read 'Replikit' doe this one? I have to say, as has been suggested, that England badge does look a little small too. Think we need a few more photos, close up of the badge, front and back, the label in the collar and the Umbro logo.

Here is a good photo of the white one, so you can gauge the scale of the badge

ok, here we go, it's looking more pigal market than player-issue by the minute

Did you keep the box?
It may be worth more?...

Well, it's a real England badge, just not sure it was originally on that shirt. Can you get a photo of the back of the badge, on the inside of the shirt? Is it proffesionally stitched on?

The badge looks like its from a kids shirt, put on an adults.

(that white England shirt circa 1990 is probably my all-time fave England shirt)

Looks like a goal keepers shirt

Did a quick google and found
